Journal ArticleDOI
Absolute diversification rates in angiosperm clades
TL;DR: The phylogenetic distribution of clades with an exceedingly high number of species suggests that traits that confer high rates of diversification evolved independently in different instances and do not characterize the angiosperms as a whole.
Journal ArticleDOI
A metacalibrated time-tree documents the early rise of flowering plant phylogenetic diversity
TL;DR: This time-frame documents an early phylogenetic proliferation that led to the establishment of major angiosperm lineages, and the origin of over half of extant families, in the Cretaceous.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ferns diversified in the shadow of angiosperms
Harald Schneider,Eric Schuettpelz,Kathleen M. Pryer,Raymond Cranfill,Susana Magallón,Richard Lupia +5 more
TL;DR: It is shown that polypod ferns (> 80% of living fern species) diversified in the Cretaceous, after angiosperms, suggesting perhaps an ecological opportunistic response to the diversification of angios perms, as angiosPerms came to dominate terrestrial ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Angiosperm diversification through time.
Susana Magallón,Amanda Castillo +1 more
TL;DR: Angiosperm diversity is found to have mixed origins: slightly less than half of the living species belong to lineages with low to moderate diversification rates, which appeared between 130 and 102 Mya (Barremian-uppermost Albian; Lower Cretaceous).
